The E’s and Ah’s of Drum Fills – PDF
The drum fills below emphasize the “E's” and “Ah's” by using the bass drum and the snare drum. Naturally, these drums stand out more because of the snare drum's attack and the bass drum's thump. Each of these fills have the bass drum on the “E,” and then the snare drum on the “Ah.” The third example places both of the first two fills together into a full-measure drum fill. For those of you linear fans, these fills are also considered linear fills because no two drums play together.
